Manchester United's injury issues are set to improve ahead of their Premier League clash with Tottenham this weekend.
Erik ten Hag could be without only three senior players for the Old Trafford clash on Sunday afternoon, with defender Victor Lindelof in line to return after his recent lay-off.
Luke Shaw is continuing his rehabilitation process after he suffered a setback in pre-season training, while Tyrell Malacia is gradually being eased back into action after his torrid time out. Leny Yoro is the only long-term concern for United at this moment in time but although he is now moving without crutches, it could be a while before we see him back in a matchday squad.
Here is a round-up of all the United injury news and the predicted return dates for their sidelined stars:

2. Luke Shaw - 19 October vs Brentford (H)
Ten Hag hopes Shaw could be back before the October international break, but it is looking unlikely. A squad involvement against Brentford next month should be targeted. | Manchester United via Getty Images Photo: Manchester United via Getty Images
3. Tyrell Malacia - 19 October vs Brentford (H)
Malacia has taken part in a few passing sessions but is still training alone. Ten Hag previously said the Dutch defender could return in two months, which could mean the home match against Brentford after the next international break. | Manchester United via Getty Images Photo: Manchester United via Getty Images
4. Leny Yoro - 2 November vs Chelsea (H)
Yoro was initially ruled out for at least three months in the summer, so a return against Chelsea in November is still a best case scenario but it could take even longer. | Manchester United via Getty Images Photo: Manchester United via Getty Images
